Music teachers lay a foundation for a life-long love of, and appreciation
for, music by introducing basic melodic and rhythmic concepts, instrument
types and families, vocal posture and breathing, and numerous other topics
and skills. Music teachers also have the unique opportunity to collaborate
with other Subject Expert Teachers to bring music into history, technology,
and other areas to provide further context and enhanced learning for
students. Our teachers are encouraged to bring their own passion into the
classroom and share with students in an enthusiastic and innovative way to
produce extraordinary outcomes.
